This week in Union County girls basketball
,
PLAYER TO WATCHThe play of Gabby Clauer has been a bright spot this season for Roselle Park (1-8).Clauer, a senior guard, has scored 180 points in nine games, good for an average of exactly 20.0 ppg. She has gone over 30 points twice this season, including a 30-point effort in Roselle Park's 59-44 victory over Manville on Jan. 11. Clauer had a season-high 32 points one game earlier in a 56-50 loss at Hillside on Jan. 8.
Roselle Park plays host to Rahway (2-5) Tuesday night at 7.
TEAM TO WATCH
Cranford (7-2) posted its most impressive decision of the season when it defeated then-undefeated Roselle Catholic, 49-47, on Jamie Webb's buzzer-beater Saturday in Roselle.
Webb, a senior guard, had a team-high 15 points in the victory and now leads the squad in offense with an 11.6 ppg. scoring average. Jackie Huber, last year's Union County Coach of the Year, also has received solid efforts this winter from seniors Danielle Gross (7.1 ppg.) and Taylor D'Antico (4.5 ppg.), freshman Jessica McCoy (8.4 ppg.) and sophomore Morgan Miller (11.1 ppg.).
Cranford faces another big test Tuesday when it plays at Linden (6-4) at 4 p.m.
GAMES TO WATCH
Roselle Catholic (9-1), which defeated No. 15 Piscataway, 55-42, on Sunday, should have its hands full when it will likely face Union County's two final unbeaten squads this week.
Summit (8-0), led by last week's state top performer in girls basketball, Emily Cristaldi (20.9 ppg.), visits Roselle Catholic tonight at 7.
On Thursday at 4 p.m., Roselle Catholic will play host to New Providence, which takes a 7-0 mark into today's game against St. Mary (1-4) of Elizabeth. Junior forward Kaitlyn Cresencia (10.4 ppg.) leads New Providence's balanced offense.
Roselle Catholic is steered by last year's Union County Girls Basketball Player of the Year, Allison Skrec, who is averaging 21.3 points per game.
